Product Description

This 100% factory OEM Ford® tailgate handle with a high quality aftermarket camera has been brought to you exclusively by Infotainment.com to allow for a completely plug & play installation of a rear view camera to your factory Sync 8-inch or 4-inch base radio display.

 

INCLUDE PROGRAMMER?

If you are purchasing or have purchased a MyFord Touch or Sync 3 upgrade from Infotainment.com then you will not need a programmer. The system has been pre-programmed for backup camera use.

If you have not recently purchased an Infotainment.com radio upgrade and you would like to add a backup camera to your existing 8-inch or 4-inch base radio display then you will need to add the OBD Genie F-RVC programmer to your order by simply selecting the option above.

Product Installation

Remove and replace your tailgate handle. Route the camera wiring to behind the radio display. Interface the camera’s yellow RCA video cable to the radio interface RCA. Tap camera’s power/ground wires into the included U-INTEZDC kit which easily plugs behind the cigarette lighter. If you didn’t purchase any sort of screen upgrade with Infotainment.com then simply purchase and run the F-RVC through your OBDII port. Done!

If you have any questions during the installation process please feel free to contact our customer support department.

    I have a 2017 Ford F150 XL package. I’d say it took about 2hrs for installation. It works great now. Had some trouble with a bad harness that caused some trouble shooting but once the bad harness was replaced all good. The tech also sent a tablet to ensure the truck programmed correctly. The whole process took about a month between shipping new genies, troubleshooting, harness replacement, and programming but all in all I’m satisfied.

    Great product other than the Genie. 3rd time is the charm. It helped speaking to someone directly to figure it out. It would be nice to have the 8 inch monitor Video just to confirm you are following all the steps confidently.

    Installation went ok. I had a center console in my truck, unusual for a XL so the electrical connection was different than the one on the video. I didn’t buy the programmer, I have a good friend who is a service manager at the local Ford dealership so that saved me $200 bucks. The camera works great, I am very satisfied. The quality of the wiring components that integrate the unit with m y 8â€? display were great and so easy to install. Very glad I made the purchase!

    Works as expected. The video instruction gave me the confident I needed to take on this install. All of the parts came in very well packaged. The connectors made installation a breeze. I ended up routing the wires through the firewall. Took a bit more time but I didn’t want to cut the floor.

    Easy to install. Great technical support. Flash update worked easy with the OBD tool. There is a magnifying glass on the screen that implies I can get a close-up view as I am backing but it does nothing when I select it. Would be nice if the lines turned as you turn the wheel but it’s a great picture and works well.

    Excellent upgrade works great,kind of a pain to run wire loom but not to bad,would suggest to any one doing it to tape the rca connector and wires together to keep them clean and ease install
    Other then that that the only only other thing that sucks is the extra $200 for the programmer that you will only use once!
    But camera works great and im happy!!

    Easy install, it was a plug and play operation. The only thing is that I would have liked for there to be a trouble shooting video for when everything doesn’t go perfect like in the video. I had an issue with the ODBII genie.

    My 2015 Ford F150 had a display, but no backup camera. Someone recommended this one on Infotainment. I saw how easy it was to install and the fact that it’s a factory product sold me. I was also impressed by their customer service. That’s becoming a lost art. I called to place my order to make sure I got what was needed. The guy that answered was very helpful and emailed me right away and gave me his name/number in case I had any questions. The camera has been installed a couple weeks now and is working great! The tailgate handle is exactly the same as the one we had.

    Delivery was late due to some issue with the programmer. However, once I got the order everything worked perfectly. Without a flaw. I was really surprised because these kinds of things always run into glitches, but this was literally perfect. Thanks

    Purchased the backup camera kit for a 2017 f150. The item was shipped very fast and was complete. I watched the installation video a couple of times and the install went quickly and was really easy to do. The camera works great and is exactly what I needed for the truck being that the tailgate is so high. It works and looks like a factory original camera setup.

    I had a basic camera above the license plate, but thought it would be better to get a higher camera back up angle, especially as I back up to trailers quite often.

    This style is well worth its weight in gold.

    Great Product. It was very easy to install, just like the video show you and I mean exactly. I had a little trouble with the programmer not working, called customer service and they sent me a shipping label to send the programmer back. Got a new one back in a week. Plug it in and it work just like they said it would. Love being able to see right behind me now. I do think it is a little pricey though but that’s me. If you don’t put it in yourself, it’s going to cost you over $600.00.

    I watched the installation video, ordered the camera, and installed it with no problems. I had to run the OBD genie programmer a couple of times before it worked however, but it has been working since, just as advertised. I would recommend this product to anybody.

    The kit was a fairly straight forward installation. Using various you tube videos I was able plan a route from the tailgate to my entry point into the cab. I tapped into the auto/start stop connection for power. Ground was via the passenger side ground bolt accessed under the fuse cover at the kick panel.
    Very pleased with the final operation of the camera.

    I was provided support via tech staff to confirm I had the correct camera for my truck.
    Tech staff and service operators were fast to respond and pleasant to deal with.
    Will shop here again.

    The product was delivered on the date promised. I stalled the tailgate camera and had a professional do the cable routing and install to the Sync. Works great!!

    The only thing I wish it had was the BLACK center line in the display.

    Would recommend to others.
